Job Description:
The Company Heico has a history of success. Since its founding
over 40 years ago The Heico Companies has grown from a single
business to over 78 separate companies through a strategic
acquisition policy, and by reinvesting its earnings into internal

distressed companies, Heico strategically targets acquisitions that
will complement its ever-growing portfolio of companies in
manufacturing, construction, and industrial services. These four
core operations are organized into groups: Applied Solutions Group,
Construction Solutions Group, Industrial Technologies Group, and

about markets, production processes, and management practices
across other Heico groups and companies. Heico continues to seek
